Budget Message
May 24, 2017
General Fund - $10,549,856
Water/Sewer Fund - $2,907,231
Honorable Mayor Blair and Board of Aldermen Members:
I am pleased to submit to you the Town of Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina Fiscal Year 2017/2018 (FY17/18) Annual
Budget. The Budget was prepared in accordance with the North Carolina Local Government Budget and Fiscal Control
Act. The budget is balanced and identifies all revenue and expenditure estimates for FY17/18.
The budget that has been presented to you proposes an increase in the revenue neutral Ad Valorem Tax rate of
$.1244 per $100 of valuation to $.1275 per $100 of valuation. The increase proposed is to help offset an estimated loss
in sales tax revenue created by the redistribution of the new tax values and an increases in Ad Valorem rates from other
New Hanover County governments. The anticipated Ad Valorem valuation for the Town is $2,665,166,481 with the
Town's typical collection rate being 99%. This year, New Hanover County went through a revaluation process. The Town
is required to identify the revenue neutral tax rate. The revenue neutral tax rate is the new tax rate that generates the
same revenue as the prior Fiscal Year before the revaluation. The revenue neutral tax rate is $.1244 per $100 of
valuation. Water and Sewer maintenance fees and rates were proposed at the same rate as FY16/17.
Expenditures and anticipated revenues for all funds within the budget are as follows:

Revenue projections were projected very close to historical averages i order to balance the General Fund budget and the
budget includes no Fund Balance allocation. Water and Sewer Revenues were predicted very close to historical averages
in order to balance the Water/Sewer Fund budget.
Overall, it is my opinion that the Town is very sound financially. With limited growth of the Ad Valorem tax base a limited
rise in revenues and possible changes being proposed by the General Assembly that could impact local government
revenues in the future, it is likely that future budget years will remain challenging as the Town begins to implement a
variety of capital projects in all funds and typical expenditures are impacted by inflationary increases .
Budget Format
The budget is organized into two main Funds and a variety of smaller funds. The two primary Funds include the General
Fund and the Enterprise Fund (Water, Sewer,
Stormwater) with each Fund having a separate stream of revenue. The separation of revenues and expenditures into
Funds allow the Town to be more accountable to citizens as to how revenues are expended. Departments or
organizations funded by the General Fund include: Governing Body, General Administration, Information Technology,
Planning and Inspections, Parks and Recreation Programs, Parks and Recreation Maintenance, Police, Parking
Management, Fire, Emergency Preparedness, Ocean Rescue, Fleet Maintenance, Public Works Administration, Building
Maintenance, Streets, and Sanitation.
Expenditures in the Enterprise Fund are directed toward the operation, repair, maintenance, and extension of the Town's
water system, sewer system and stormwater system and the payment of any principal and interest on debt service
obligations. Departments or organizations funded by the Enterprise Fund include: Water, Stormwater, and Sewer.

ENTERPRISE FUND SUMMARY
WAATERiSEWERISTORMWAT'ER

Summary of Enterprise Fund
Projected expenditures for the Enterprise Fund are
$2,907,231 with revenue projections set at $2,907,231. Over prior budget years, the Town has not adequately funded
the water and sewer department. Existing infrastructure has aged and a lot of it needs major upgrades. Future
planning for an expanded water supply and sewer treatment is in the works. The outcome of a study will help direct the
Town regarding the future of water and sewer infrastructure needs.
As the Town implements needed improvements to the systems, debt service estimated to be more than $20M could
burden the customer with significantly higher water and sewer bills. Once there is clearer direction on the Town's future
water and sewer needs, the Town will hire a firm to complete a rate study.
Water and Sewer Rates
Over the past 10 years, water and sewer rates have remained relatively stable and low. The Town of Wrightsville
Beach is at a disadvantage when it comes to being able to maintain low water and sewer rates to its
customers in the future if significant capital work is needed. The Town has a relatively small system (roughly 2,600
customers) with a limited number of customers that use the system throughout the year. Larger systems have the ability
to spread the cost of large capital projects across a larger serVice area.
The Town must build and maintain a system that, at its peak, must provide and treat approximately 2.3 million gallons of
water per day. The Town's water/sewer needs are unique, although similar to other North Carolina coastal communities,
in that the standard water use in the winter months is often below 500,000 gallons per day.
Rates were derived based on the amount of revenue needed to fund all operational expenses and capital expenditures of
the Fund. Revenue derived from water and sewer sales was based on the Town selling approximately 250,856,000
gallons of water with revenue being generated (includes penalties and interest) in the amount of
$1,265,000. The water rate has been set at $1.52 per 100 cubic feet of use. The sewer rate has been set at $2.65 per 100
cubic feet treated. This represents no increase above the FY16/17 rates. The monthly maintenance fee for a standard
residential account is $16 per month for water and
$25 per month for sewer which represents no increase over the prior Fiscal Year

Monthly stormwater fee rates will remain at $7 per month for a single family residence with the actual cost being
dependent on lot size. Monthly stormwater fees will generate $111,000 annually.
The revenue generated from the FY17/18 rate does not cover some of the more substantial projects that the Town will
have to undertake and operating expenditures. Current water and sewer rates are still too low to complete all of the
current needs of the system.
Summary ofh# a Maio r Enterprise Fund Revenue Sources for FY17/18
The following is a summary of some of the more significant Enterprise Fund revenue sources.
Fees for Service - It is estimated that the Town will generate $2,565,000 of revenue from water and sewer
customers in the Town.
Rent on Water Tanks - The Town currently rents antennae space to several wireless carriers. It is anticipated that
the Town should receive $65,000 in the upcoming year.
Stormwater Fees - The Town currently charges homeowners a fee dependent on lot size used to offset the cost of
a required a stormwater program. It is estimated that the Town will generate $111,000 in revenue to support the
program.
Enterlrise Fund Expenditures at a Glance
Employee Compensation - The proposed budget has a recommendation that all full-time employees be eligible for a
1.5% Cost -of -Living Adjustment beginning on July 1St
Funds for up to a 1.5% merit bonus increase for employees has been included in the proposed budget but will be delayed
until later in the Fiscal Year.
Medical Insurance, Dental Insurance, Life Insurance, and Other Insurances and Employee benefits - The Town
received quotes from several carriers for the benefits that Town employees receive as part of their compensation
package. The rate quotes received from all carriers were slightly higher than the Town's current insurance costs. Blue

Cross Blue Shield's new rate resulted in a 1.8% increase over FY16/17. The Town will choose a plan by Blue Cross Blue
Shield with similar benefits to the Town's First Carolina Care Plan.
The Town offers both a PPO plan and HSA plan for employees to select. Employees continue to receive Dental insurance
and Life insurance at no charge to the employee. The Town continues to match up to 4% of an employee's contribution to
a 401 K program.
The Town will remain with the North Carolina League of Municipalities for Property and Liability Coverage, Workers
Compensation Insurance and a variety of bonds required for employees. The North Carolina League of Municipalities
continues to be competitive in their rates and have provided good service over the prior years.
Departmental Expenditures Summary
Water Department ($1,519,451) - The Water Department Budget was funded at 4.76% more than funding levels in
FY16/17. Overall, the department consists of 8 employees. Personnel related costs are $440,622. Employees in this
department undertake all water, sewer and stormwater related maintenance and day-to-day activities. Operating
expenditures for the department are $368,122. The Water Fund pays the General Fund $64,800 for personnel, jobs and
other expenditures performed by the General Fund. The Town will only fund $35,000 in CIP items due to the lack of
revenue to do more.
Stormwater Department ($91,347) - The department was created to address a number of stormwater issues and
primarily as a result of being required to maintain a program by the State. The department consists of one employee that
oversees the operation of day-to-day activities. Personnel costs for the department are projected at
$55,447. Operating expenditures have been funded at
$35,900. No capital improvements are being proposed by the department and no funds are being transferred to the CIP in
FY17/18.
Sewer Department ($1,296,433) - As previously stated, all personnel costs are allocated within the Water Department.
The department has a variety of line items that make up the majority of expenditures such as contracted services
($692,900), administrative charges to the General Fund ($115,000) and a debt payment for the NEI of ($250,000). The
Town will not be placing funds in the CIP reserve or completing any large capital projects due to the lack of adequate
funding to do so.

Enterprise Retained Earnings (Fund Balance)
While not required by the Local Government Commission, a healthy Fund Balance is essential to the financial stability of
the Enterprise Fund. Like the General Fund Balance, the
Enterprise Fund Balance can be used to maintain operations and to make needed repairs to infrastructure
following a major weather event and is needed to sustain expenditure while revenue if being collected. The
anticipated Enterprise Fund Balance available at the end of June 2017 is $2,725,096 or 94%.
In addition to the reserve fund, the Town has an additional
$3,077,517 in reserves set aside for future Capital Expenditures with the two largest projects being the NEI#2
account at $72,779 and the Southside Wasterwater Treatment Plant upgrade in the amount of $3,004,738.
The FY17/18 Budget that has been provided to you represents many countless hours of review and work by the Board of
Aldermen, Department Heads, and Staff. Overall, I believe that this Budget will allow us to effectively provide the
necessary services and to operate Town government in a way that is acceptable to the Board of Aldermen and the
citizens of Wrightsville Beach.
The Town has taken many steps in the past to limit expenditures and continue to be very conservative with spending.
The Board of Aldermen should be congratulated for their hard work and dedication to the citizens of Wrightsville Beach. I
hope that everyone realizes the amount of time, effort, and personal sacrifice that is associated with overseeing the
affairs of the Town. All that have a stake in the welfare of
the Town should appreciate the accomplishments of this Board. You are truly good stewards of the Town's resources.
In closing, I would like to personally thank all Town employees for their hard work that they perform on a daily basis. The
employees of this Town are loyal, hardworking and they are a valued resource of the Town. I look forward to working with

the Board, Citizens and Staff in striving to keep this Town a wonderful place to live, work, shop, visit and recreate. Thank
you.
Sincerely ,
Timothy W. Owens Town Manager

SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOW RESPONSE ACTION PLAN
INTRODUCTION
The Town of Wrightsville Beach's Public Works Department's Water & Sewer Division is responsible
for the operation and maintenance of the town's wastewater collection system, storm drain
collection system and wastewater transmission (NEI) line. The purpose of this system is to collect
and convey the town's wastewater to CFPUA's Southside Wastewater Treatment Plant. These
facilities are well maintained and normally should not result in any sewage spills or overflows.
However, it's possible exists that unforeseen accidents, unusual equipment failure or other events
not controllable by the town could result in a sewage spill/overflow.
This manual has been prepared to provide guidance to Town staff responding to a wastewater
discharge, including public notification.
The manual also includes general guidance and supplemental information including emergency phone
numbers, media contacts, and specific overflow site information.
Wastewater Release or Overflow
During a storm event, pump station failure, sewer main blockage or a sewer main failure, untreated
wastewater may overflow from pump station points, manholes or points of failure. Our pumping
stations are continuously monitored by a SCADA system, which includes the ability to notify
emergency personnel of station problems. These problems include high wet well levels and power
failures. The following procedures are written for use by Public Works Water & Sewer personnel as a
guideline to notify the NC DWO., NHC DHHS, the media and the public of such events.
Wastewater System Overflow Points
The Town has a number of potential points in the collection system that may overflow during storm
induced flow conditions or a pump station failure. These points are at the location(s) where the
manhole is at the low point of the collection system and would be the most likely point of overflow in
the event of a major station failure. These potential locations are listed below:
LS #1 (1703 N Lumina Ave)
LS #2 (2699 N Lumina Ave)
LS #3 (2 lula St)
LS #4 (5 Live Oak Dr)
LS #5 (94 Pelican Dr)

This Sanitary Sewer Overflow Response Action Plan (SSORAP) is designed to assist and train
employees to comply with the responsibilities of the plan and to ensure that all citizens and
employees health and safety are protected. It is also designed to ensure that all the appropriate
entities are informed of all sewage spills.

SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOW RESPONSE ACTION PLAN
RESPONDING STAFF RESPONSIBILITIES
The first crew responding to a sewer backup has the immediate responsibility to protect people,
property, and the environment from effects of a sewage spill/overflow. To meet these objectives in
a rapid, effective and organized manner, staff will respond and fulfill the duties in the following
categories as directed by this plan:
#1 CONTAIN spilling sewage from entering waterways
• Capture the sewage where it can be recovered and returned to the sewer system.
• Contain sewage in advantageous locations (i.e. flood control facilities, construction excavation
locations, vacant lots etc.).
• Containment materials include sand, sand bags, poly sheeting, socks, etc.
#2 CONTROL the spill overflow and bypass area of failure
• Bypass the obstructed line by pumping the spillage into another non- restricted line or vacuum
with Vac Trailer.
• Set up barricades to prevent public contact with spill.
#3 CLEANUP the affected areas to ensure public health and safety
• Remove all visible debris.
• Wash down and contain run-off being careful not to wash sewage into storm drain system.
• Determine whether to disinfect or not to disinfect?
• Consider requirements of other agencies.
• Consider beneficial use of receiving waters.
• Consider the uses and ownership of affected properties.
• Clean all hard/soft surfaces.
#4 REPORT determine reporting requirements
• Complete in-house reports.
• Report to all regulatory agencies as required.
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Public Works shall verbally report to NCDEQ at the Wilmington Office soon as possible, but in no case
more than 24 hours following first knowledge of the occurrence of either of the following:
Any SSO and/or spill over 1,000 gallons to the ground; or
Any SSO and/or spill, regardless of volume, that reaches surface water

SSO Reporting Form Guidance
Reportable Wastewater Discharge
A Reportable Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) is a SSO greater than 1,000 gallons to the ground or a
SSO of any amount that reaches surface water (including through ditches, storm drains, etc.).
All SSOs that meet the criteria for Reportable Sanitary Sewer Overflow must be reported as soon as:
• Staff has knowledge of the discharge,
• Reporting is possible, and
• Reporting can be provided without impeding cleanup or emergency measures.
Interdepartmental Communications
Personnel shall communicate using the Public Works radio or a cell phone.
Sampling
Sampling is to be conducted for discharges that reach the public waters. Samples will be taken from
the area of the discharge. In addition, an upstream and a downstream sample will be taken during a
rising tide and an upstream and a downstream sample will be taken during a falling tide for a
minimum of 24 hours. The samples will be processed by Environmental Chemists (392-0223 regular
hours or Jay Baker 520-1852 afterhours). The sample information will include sample identification,
date and location the sample was collected, and visual observations describing field conditions during
sampling.

DEFINITIONS
Blockage - Something that partially or fully blocks the wastewater from flowing through a sewer
pipeline. The blockage can be caused by debris in the sewer, grease buildup, root intrusion, or a
partial or full collapse of the pipeline. If not caught in time, the blockage may cause an overflow.
This is also called a stoppage.
Minor Spill/SSO - Sewage that reaches the surface that is less than 1,000 gallons and has not
reached surface waters.
Major Spill/SSO — Any SSO and/or spill over 1,000 gallons to the ground or any SSO/spill regardless
of volume, that reaches surface waters.
Reportable Wastewater Discharge — Any SSO over 1,000 gallons to the ground or any SSO/spill
regardless of volume, that reaches surface waters.
SSO Electronic Reporting (5 -day)
If you would like the ability to enter 5 -day reports electronically using the Public Incident Portal, please
contact the appropriate Regional Office or Central Office and request to speak with a wastewater
collection system program staff member.
Please be prepared to provide information related to your facility, such as Permit Number, Owner

Contain sewage in advantageous locations (i.e. flood control facilities, construction excavations
locations, vacant lots etc.)
Containment materials include sand, sand bags, poly sheeting, socks, etc
#2 CONTROL the spill overflow and bypass area of failure
Bypass the obstructed line by pumping the spillage into another non- restricted line or vacuum with
Vac trailer
Set up barricades to prevent public contact with spill
#3 CLEANUP the affected areas to ensure public health and safety
• Remove all visible debris
• Wash down and contain run-off being careful not to wash sewage into storm drain system
• Determine whether to disinfect or not to disinfect?
• Consider requirements of other agencies
• Consider beneficial use of receiving waters
• Consider the uses and ownership of affected properties
• Clean all hard/soft surfaces
Follow-up Reporting
A written follow-up report of the SSO must be submitted to the NC DEQ within five working days.
Include date, time, volume, and duration of the wastewater discharge; the cause; and the steps taken
to minimize possible environmental impacts. Also include any evidence that an upset condition
existed and the event was beyond the control of the Town.
Clean-up Procedures (General)
Typically, overflows discharge directly into a receiving stream. When appropriate, the Town will
remove as much wastewater debris as possible, flush hard surfaces with water, or cover with hydrated
lime. Secure the area as needed and post temporary signs warning the public of the discharge. If
needed, hard surfaces may also be sprayed with a 10% solution of bleach for additional disinfection.
Sewer Overflow Field Data Sheet
Submit the completed Sewer Overflow Field Data Sheet with information regarding any wastewater
release or overflow to the Public Works Director and the Water & Sewer Supervisor, or their
designees. See attached Sewer Overflow Field Data Sheet.

SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOW RESPONSE ACTION PLAN
SAFETY
Whenever Town personnel respond to a report of an overflow/spill, they may encounter an
emergency situation that requires immediate action. The most critical aspect of resolving an incident
of this nature is to safely and competently perform the actions necessary to return the damage
equipment or facility to operation as soon as possible.
The most important item to remember during this type of incident is that safe operations, both to
the employee and the public, always take precedence over expediency or short cuts.
Depending on the nature or cause of the overflow/spill, personnel may be performing mechanical or
electrical repairs at a pump station, removing a mainline blockage with the Vac Trailer or repairing a
damaged section of pipeline. At this point, it is essential that all applicable safety procedures are
followed so that the response does not cause the situation to escalate.
Typical responses may require personnel to implement the following types of safety procedures:
• Lockout/tag out of equipment for repairs
• Confined space entry procedures
• Traffic control procedures at site
• Equipment and/or vehicle operation
• Use of personnel protective equipment
Another important aspect of responding to an overflow/spill is the ability to maintain adequate
communication via two-way radio and/or cellular telephone. Responders may need to call for
additional resources as the situation may warrant as well as to notify other personnel and
supervisors of the situation.

INCIDENT STAFF RESPONSIBILITIES
The Utility Superintendent and the Water/Wastewater Supervisor are responsible to ensure that all
Operations and Maintenance personnel are trained in and follow these procedures.
The responding employee is responsible for filling out the SSO Field Data Sheet. The Wastewater
Supervisor is responsible for verifying the SSO Field Data Sheet and signs off that it is complete and
accurate.
The Utility Superintendent/ORC is responsible for notifying regulatory agencies within the required
time frames.
SAFFTY
Whenever Town personnel respond to a report of an overflow/spill, they may encounter an emergency
situation that requires immediate action. The most critical aspect of resolving an incident of this nature
is to safely and competently perform the actions necessary to return the damage equipment or facility
to operation as soon as possible.
The most important item to remember during this type of incident is that safe operations, both to the
employee and the public, always take precedence over expediency or short cuts.
Depending on the nature or cause of the overflow/spill, personnel may be performing mechanical or
electrical repairs at a pump station, removing a mainline blockage with the vactor truck or repairing a
damaged section of pipeline. At this point, it is essential that all applicable safety procedures are
followed so that the response does not cause the situation to escalate.
Typical responses may require personnel to implement the following types of safety procedures:
• Lockout/tag out of equipment for repairs
• Confined space entry procedures
• Traffic control procedures at site
• Equipment and/or vehicle operation
• Use of personnel protective equipment
Another important aspect of responding to an overflow/spill is the ability to maintain adequate
communication via two-way radio and/or cellular telephone. Responders may need to call for
additional resources as the situation may warrant as well as to notify other personnel and supervisors
of the situation.

OVERFLOW CALCULATIONS
Contained Area
Estimate the volume of an overflow based on area calculations. Use the following steps to calculate
volume:
Sketch the shape of the spill
Measure the dimension of the spill
Measure the average depth of the spill
Convert all measurements to feet
Calculate the volume using the following formulas:
Rectangular (gallons) = length x width x depth x 7.48
Circular (gallons) = 0.785 * (diameter)2 * depth
Width
en th
Un -contained Flow
The overflow volume can be estimated with the following formula:
Volume (gallons) = Flow Rate (gpm) x duration (minutes)
